I drop a comment whenever I appreciate a article on a site or if I have something to add to the conversation. Usually it’s caused by the fire communicated in the article I read. And on this article ComicDay 10 Cosplay Pure China Quality | Sankaku Complex. I was moved enough to create a thought 🙂 I actually do have a few questions for you if you tend not to mind. Could it be simply me or do a few of these responses appear like coming from brain dead folks? 😛 And, if you are posting at other sites, I would like to keep up with anything fresh you have to post. Would you list all of all your community sites like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?

Am I the only one here laughing at how many chinese are here neg-repping all the comments that doesn’t talk about them positively or any explosion jokes that are being said?

Also they dislike being mocked themselves but so many of them here are commenting on how “ugly the Japanese are”. So childish hahahaha. If you don’t like being mocked them don’t mock other countries or use this 1 article alone as a proof “Chinese are better looking”. Actions like this make your race look even bad and butthurt. I feel sorry for any decent people left in your race.

One more proof that the japanese are the ugliest people in the world. Even chineses can look nice doing cosplay. No matter how hard Japeneses try to look cool they are just fucking ugly people. Let the cosplay art to the rest of the world please…

Japanese people don’t need to prove by cosplay. They won Miss Universe waaay more than China (how many times did China win?). Your view towards Japanese beauty seems pretty narrow and bias while the rest of the world like Miss Universe accept Japanese beauty.

Hey there! For those who want to watch more pictures or live cam recordings of the ComicDay 10 held in Chengdu, China please click this URL or copy it into your brower to watch a edited video recording of this event. You may see a real picture of the various cosplayers on that day. http://static.loli.my/miniloader.swf?aid=318695&page=1

FYI, the video was posted on a Chinese website so you may see many chinese comments.

Actually I agree! But to be honest they only picked the Good cosplay to be put on here and I bet there are millions of bad cosplayer in China. You shouldn’t think Chinese are good cosplayers only cause of this article

Just the line “If anything i have learned since coming to Sancom” and comments like 17:49 & 12:51 are reasons why majority of SanCom people are seen as nothing but racist asshats who’s educational level is that of a brick and can only hide behind a computer while trolling or bashing another.

Times like these I’m proud to be British and from UK. Chances are the ignorant racist or troll comments usually come from Americans out of all other Western ethnicities out there.

If anything i have learned since coming to Sancom, is that Chinese are scum of the earth. Lower than animal. They kill others and them selfs. They rip off eachother and most of all they rip us off. They are not the same as us.

My take on this Chinese cosplayers are better is not because The Chinese are prettier as a whole nation. The costume itself is probably on par (or maybe the Japanese is slightly better)… but the biggest problem for Japanese cosplayer is because this cosplaying culture isn’t as well received in Japan as in the rest of Asia. In China (and probably other Asian countries), this culture is really well respected. The one doing it usually people with good backgrounds. They look at it as an imported culture, thus something very cool. Because of that, lots of people doing it, including the pretty girls.
Basically it’s more cool doing cosplaying in China (and probably even the rest of the world) compared to in Japan. That is probably why it’s harder to find a pretty Japanese cosplayer.

Bigger population, but how many of them is there that attends conventions and such? There’s no way it’ll be more than Japanese attending a comiket.

If bigger population=more cuties…why is it not so with our Western hemisphere huh? Got more cosplayers than both Japan and China combined when it comes to conventions. Yet most of the times we got fatties, cheap cosplays and just some plain ugly. We’re complete jokes compared to Asian cosplayers.

Yep. He used to be gay-porn star, but due to his videos being made into MAD by the Japanese and uploaded onto nico nico, it led to him became well-known and popular among otaku, and he has now been established as a net-idol status of a sort XD

Nico nico even invited and paid for him to go Japan for a live event which centered around him 😛

you can also compare the chinese cosplay galleries vs the japanese comiket ones. i know it might be selectively biased but the chinese cosplayers look better imo…im gonna stop here though since beauty is completely subjective.

i have been to both countries, and just generally speaking chinese girls seemed to be better looking on average. now there’s pretty and ugly girls in both countries, but the average chinese girl seems to be better looking than the average japanese…i know people won’t agree with me because Chinese people are more often made fun of than japanese, but it’s just my opinion.

Actually Japanese are known in Asia as having the best make up skills. Even a high school kid has better skills than a lot of Asian adults due to their culture. In Japan you are expected to blend in with the crowd and most Japanese girls are very concern with their looks and make up. The society also expects everyone to leave the house completely dolled up, including face and hair. No such thing as leaving the house with wet hair in a bun or ponytail, slight make up, ironed clothes. And this expectation to look presentable extends to the guys as well. If you have actually been to Japan and take a good look at the people and talk to them, you will agree and know what I am talking about. This thing about conforming is very strong across all aspects of society.

And I agree Chinese (especially Taiwanese) have a better build. They are usually taller and slimmer, and better proportions, and nicer legs. Faces are very feminine and adult. Low body fat and small bone structure.

Japanese are shorter and chubbier. They have longer torsos, shorter legs, bigger heads (kinda like Shokotan). If you have many Japanese female friends you will notice that they have this obsession with celebrities with small faces and long legs because of this genetic trait. A lot have what they called a 6 to 6 1/2 head body instead of the more common 7 or 7 1/2 head body of Asians (a lot of Caucasians have 7 1/2 to 8 head proportions). They have rounder features (therefore cute faces. Due to the higher percentage of body fat plus body type, they have bigger breasts and the muchimuchi body some guys love.

Since someone mentioned Korean, I’ll do one on Korean too. Korean usually have a tall and broad frame, belonging to the more athletic type. Less body fat, big bone structure. Then to gain muscle easily. Due to it being a very homogeneous society (very little migration), looks tend to be homogeneous too. Facial bone structure tend to be more prominent too, meaning more people have stronger cheekbones and higher nose bridges compared to other Asians (that is why zygoma and mandible surgeries are so common there. and why a lot of them have nice noses). Double eyelids are less common here. They usually have nicer teeth.

Yeah, I was just scrolling down the pictures, casually drinking some water… Suddenly, Edward Scissorshands, and my screen is suddenly a lot cleaner due to all the whiping of water I had to do due to me spraying it all over it in surprise.

Japan was known to copy quite a bit after the second World War, for example, a pre-Tokyo Disneyland Theme Park that was a direct copy of the US Disneyland. But obviously, they got better. The same thing will eventually happen to China.

Looking back at recent history (Made in Japan especially in the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s) along with older history (the written language, mythology, culture, etc.) in Japan I am forced to laugh at the irony.

One thing really stood out with the Touhou cosplayers, they were mostly girls.

gradually we’ll start seeing china’s quality levels go up.. just as japan was once denigrated for copying(i.e. anime from disney) and low quality goods. eventually as infrastructure is established, mass production will over-saturate the supply, and companies will learn to establish a reputation for trustworthiness as a selling point rather than simply by price.

That’s patently untrue, many historical innovations were created in China. The same could be said for Japan except they have less historical accomplishments and more recent accomplishments.
Copying is a typical trait for any culture that’s catching up in technology and other areas.
Also cosplay is an exception since it’s a culture based on live copying in the first place.

Is that the same China that had its ass handed to it, and gave up Hong Kong for 2 centuries as a tribute to the British? Or maybe the same China that was slaughtered by the Japanese for 20 years, and only survived because Mao’s fanatics and Chiang Kai-Shek’s fascists stopped killing EACH OTHER for a little while (and both were bankrolled and supplied by the United States and Russia).

China has been a 3rd world shithole with mercenary values and no regard for human progress in A THOUSAND YEARS. But now that we’ve given them the golden goose in the name of capitalism, they can do as they please and we suffer for it.
